I got free tickets to the Dr. Phil show & thought it would be fun to go see a taping. Jess & I, along with my sister Holly decided to go. We needed to leave by 7:30 at the latest to get to check in between 9-10am. When Holly still wasn't here by 8(she drove up from San Marcos), I went & got Jess & we got starbucks & were waiting here for Holly when she got here at 8:30. We ended up getting there about 10:20 & there were still people walking in, so we found a parking spot on a side street near by & ran to the entrance. After about 20 minutes we were told there had been a huge response to the show and they were full & had added more tapings, but we could still probably get in. We waited an hour & then the guy told us to get some lunch and come back in an hour and maybe there would be room in the next taping! :( We saw a lot of ghetto people and decided it might not be the greatest topic anyway & didn't want to waste the day waiting in line & then still not being able to get in, so we decided to leave! On the way out though, we saw Dr. Phil & Robin, his wife walking in the back door of the studio for the taping & they waved, so at least we got to see him (it made Holly's day)
We ended up driving around Hollywood, got a map to the Stars and drove around Beverly Hills, Bel Aire and made our way to Rodeo Drive hoping to see some random star (ya right) We had lunch at the Grove near the Farmer's Market on Fairfax & sat in nearly 3 hours of traffic to get home.
Not the day we were expecting, but we still had fun! :)
